day 5

Today Frank Stolzenburg visited us who is working at „Fördern und Wohnen“ that means support and living. It is an organisation for homeless people and refugees. He told us much about refugees in germany and how they get integrade in the culture and how their situation is when they‘re arrived in Hamburg. The refugees have less privacy, they have to eat together and live together with around 50 other cultures and religions. In this halls where they are living are 450 people.

After the meeting with Frank Stolzenburg at 11:45 o’clock we learn more about the others. We had to sort the group by alphabet, by religion and if there was any in your family who had to flee or not.

At 12:30 o‘clock we had lunch in the canteen of the school. 

At 1:30 PM we make groups of 10 persons and categorized the experiences, of christian minorities, muslim minorities, jewish minorities and refugees, from the last days to the different forms of exclusion. We work in groups with our knowledge of the last days and present it in front of the Turkish and German students.

After the presentations we talk about prejudices and discrimination and about our experiences till 4PM.
